Blogiversary: Celebrating ONE YEAR!

1yr2

Wahoo! I cannot believe I created Always A Lesson one year ago! What an amazing journey it has been so far 🙂  I have learned so much and am so grateful for my bloggy friends and supporters for continuing to come back to see what I have to say each week. Blogging began as a virtual reflection/diary to help me digest my instruction and plan for the future. It has become even more than I could have imagined, beginning as random thoughts that blossomed into a thorough account of my teaching experience. It is extremely therapeutic to write about what I’m doing in the classroom and 100% enjoyable to look back through my year in review (love the pictures!).  I have grown professionally and personally from this experience and I appreciate all the comments and positive feedback as it encourages me to continue to post. Who knows what this next year will bring, but I know I can look back on this first year and say it has surely been worth it.
